Regarding the first point: Although popular statistics may be incorporated into the official WCA Statistics page, some statistics are inherently unofficial, e.g. different proposed global ranking systems. The hope, moreover, is to encourage cubers, especially those without server access, to learn and experiment with php and MySQL.

To do:
* think about how best to set up user submission

13.37 single is impossible to obtain, so do you want the averages ?
I wanted to do that but the database is too big, i can't import it -_- (even in zip format)
EDIT : ok, found a way to do it, here is the query :

Not true... 21 people have managed that (four this year), Phillip Espinoza even twice! Edit: And I just saw him in your average list. Also, Pau Vela García got 13.37 average twice but never single. Besides those two, 61 people got one single or average 13.37.

@Stefan
The big majority would be because it seems like the only explanation.

Though, there could be a mistake, like judge's handwriting being hard to read (I could definitely be the judge here ), judge writting the time incorectly, even judge intentionally writing wrong, or a QJ timer.

The 13.36, and 13.38 comparison actually favors the +2 theory,
since you can't get 13.37 on a Stackmat, it isn't as common as those two are.

EDIT:
Ok, it seems the non-memory timers are responsible for most of them.

There should be a picture from Worlds 2007 where two people practicing on stage got 13.37 singles on 3x3 at the same time, and at timers fairly close to each other. I remember both solvers pausing so that audience members could take pictures (this was during warm-ups, not during any round). Sadly I don't remember who the two solvers were, I only remember the incident.
